Viscoelastic phase separation is used to fabricate non-collapsible, air-rich networks in high-water-content hydrogels containing silica aerogel beads, allowing air to permeate through the material and enabling a tenfold increase in oxygen permeability over pr…
Sample preparation of VPS hydrogels
A typical sample preparation process involves two key stages: (1) preparing a stable suspension of aerogel particles and (2) inducing VPS and filling with hydroge… [+18352 chars]
